Market Overview:
The global optical breadboards market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for precision grade optical breadboards from the industrial and scientific research applications, and the growing demand for teaching applications. The industrial grade optical breadboard segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global optical breadboard market during the forecast period. However, Asia Pacific is expected to witness highest growth in this market during the forecast period owing to rising investments by key players in this region for expanding their manufacturing facilities and product offerings.
Product Definition:
An optical breadboard is a device used to hold optical components in place while they are being assembled or tested. They are typically made of metal or plastic and have a variety of holes, slots, and other features that allow different components to be attached. Optical breadboards play an important role in the assembly and testing of optical systems, as they provide a stable platform for connecting optical components.
Precision Grade:
Precision grade is a high accuracy, low tolerance manufacturing term used to define the highest level of reproducibility for optical components. It includes ultra-high and hyper-high precision products that are manufactured with extremely small tolerances in mind. The key drivers for this market include increasing demand from industrial users who require highly accurate positioning of machine parts as well as growing adoption by OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) in the automotive sector.
Scientific Grade:
The optical breadboard is a tool that allows electrical engineers to perform various experiments and tests without any connection between the experimenter and the subject. It’s used in various fields such as life sciences, material science, electronics industry, etc. Optical breadboards are also known as light boards or photonic boards because they are made of transparent materials on which images can be projected using laser lights or LEDS sources.
Application Insights:
The industrial application segment accounted for the largest share of over 70.0% in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The growing demand for optical breadboards from various industries including semiconductor, telecommunication, automotive and aerospace is expected to drive market growth during the study period.
The scientific research application segment accounted for a significant share in 2017 owing to increasing R&D activities across various industry verticals. Optical breadboards are used as an essential component of any laboratory because they help scientists measure light intensity, wavelength or frequency with high accuracy and precision which otherwise would be very difficult or impossible to achieve due to expensive equipment usage. This factor is anticipated to fuel product demand during the forecast period especially among researchers working in universities & colleges worldwide.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has witnessed significant growth in several key industries, such as electronics, automotive, energy & power, and others. This growth has led to an increase in demand for electronic components production across various applications. Optical breadboards are used for testing of optical fiber cables during manufacturing process of fiber optic products at various stages such as pre-production stage and production stage.
The Asia Pacific regional market is also characterized by a large number of local manufacturers who cater to the domestic needs of numerous countries across this region including China, Japan, India among other Southeast Asian countries. These players focus on developing high-quality products that meet or exceed international standards thereby gaining popularity among customers worldwide owing to cost advantage over imported counterparts (optical benchtop laboratory equipment).     Optical breadboard manufacturers include OSEAG Technology Inc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices
- Rising demand from the telecommunications and datacom industries
- Growing popularity of optical interconnects in data centers
- Proliferation of next-generation 5G networks
- Advances in optical breadboard technology
